ClonEval: An Open Voice Cloning Benchmark

ABSTRACT We present a new benchmark for voice cloning text-to-speech models. The benchmark consists of an evaluation protocol, an open-source library for assessing the performance of voice cloning models, and an accompanying leaderboard. The paper discusses design considerations and presents a detailed description of the evaluation procedure. The usage of the software library is explained, along with the organization of the leaderboard. The evaluation results of selected open-source models are reported.
